Lowest Rated Game in Your Collection

That for me would probably be either Nam (which I actually like a lot) or WWII GI (which wasn't bad, either).Apathetic_Prick

I've got some beauties...

-Kiss Pinball-1.3...that's about as low as it gets, right?
-Chicago Enforcer-2.7
-Q*Bert-3.7
-Three at 3.9

In all, I have 28 games that GameSpot rated below 6.0.  I have truly earned my splattered tomato emblem.

No, Nam.  Unless Postal was rated lower (and I hated that game).

It used to be Tetris Worlds for the GBA at 2.1, but I got rid of the game.  Never used it other than the initial play 5 years ago.  Seriously, Tetris for the Gameboy was more fun.

As it currently stands, Bubble Bobble Revolution (DS) is the lowest at 3.6.  I'd argue that the game deserves lower.  I have no tolerance for a game that contains a bug (level 30 boss won't appear) that renders the game unbeatable 100% of the time in all copies of the game.  Bleh!!

Through some Gamespot glitch Space Channel Five Part 2 (PS2) is listed as having a rating of 0.0. That could be because they do not list the US version, just the Japanese version. But that would be the technically wrong lowest score on a game I have.

I have Pocket Fighter @ 3.5 for the PS.

Last Bronx for the Saturn @ 4.0

I don't think they're that bad.

South Park: Chef's Luv Shack at 3.9, (Dreamcast) I never realized how many bad games I own until I checked for my worst.KlownMaster

Nightcaster II: equinox for the xbox - 1.9

i havent played it. it came with a game lot i got. i imagine i will try it out to see how awful it is, maybe it will give me a newfound appreciation for all the great games i play.

Thread necromancy. Love it. This one's from before my time :D

And so - even though I take GS reviews with a pinch of salt (a topic for another day) and most things pre-N64/PS1 have no score anyway - here's all mine under 5.0:

Dragonball: Final Bout (PS) - 3.3 (I didn't think it was that bad)

Mortal Kombat 4 (GBC) - 3.5 (worst port I've ever seen)

Descent to Undermountain (PC) - 3.7 (mistake to try an RPG using the Descent engine, but again not that bad)

Gauntlet Legends (PS) - 3.9 (only picked it up yesterday, seems pretty bad though)

Hybrid Heaven (N64) - 4.1 (I don't care what anyone says, I like it)

Resident Evil Survivor (PS) - 4.1 (again only picked up yesterday, but it's an RE lightgun shooter so how bad can it be?)

Lands of Lore III (PC) - 4.3 (bad and broken)

18 Wheeler (GC) - 4.6 (only yesterday, 20 minutes says it sucks)

SimCity 2000 (GBA) - 4.9 (another one from yesterday, a poor port, but not that poor)

I don't know what possessed me to pick up so many crap games yesterday, but they were all dirt cheap so who cares?

If I had to pick a crappest game I own it would be Dragon's Lair for the NES. Nobody got past the first screen and you know it.

Sword of the New World: Granado Espada (PC)

Bought it 'cause it was cheap. Later learned that
a) It's an MMO (which I don't play)
b) It got a 4.0 from GameSpot
The scores are all over the place on this one. Seems to be a love it or hate it sort of thing. I don't think it's that bad.

Heavenly Guardian (PS2)
Bought it because I didn't know what it was. Figured it might be fun. Later the IGN review (4.0) and GameSpot review (3.0) were posted. It might still be fun, but I've lowered my expectations. Hope to get around to playing it someday.

That'd be Unlimited Saga, for the PS2, with a score of 4.3. I disagree with this, as I've always enjoyed the SaGa games, since they are totally unlike all other RPGs in their structure and content. Mainstream review sites can't score them highly because they're so inaccessible to the common gamer, but for people who can appreciate them, there's not much like them.

Interestingly, my second lowest score is the classic Tales of Destiny for the PS1...methinks the reviewer smoked a little too much pot the day he was supposed to review it.

Space Raiders, GCN, a lovely 2.9 :p

I own 125 games that are rated 6.0 and under on gamespot. :P

Wow. That's my lowest, too. Great minds think alike?

GAMECAMILLER

Bah, only 111 rated 6.0 and below for me.

Nightcaster II: Equinox - 1.9 (like most of my xbox titles it remains unplayed)

Black Stone: Magic and Steel - 2.1 (Played it for about 15 minutes, turned it off in disgust and never touched it again)

No kidding. That review was exceptionally harsh. Tales of Destiny wasn't the greatest game I've ever played, but it wasn't 4.9 bad.

Incidentally, Soulcalibur Legends has now surpassed Bubble Bobble Revolution at the bottom of my list. I haven't played Legends yet, so I don't know if it really is that bad. Bubble Bobble Revolution is, thanks in part to a game breaking bug.

The Lowest:

Baseball Slam! NGage 1.7

Charlies Angels Gamecube 1.9

Robocop Xbox 2.3

Ultimate Fighting Championship Playstation 2.5

Heir of Zendor Saturn 3.0

It should be noted however that I GREATLY disagree with the 3.0 that Heir of Zendor got, while it may be among Koei's lesser know titles it wasn't all that bad.

cosmostein77

You know, I don't think I've ever played my copy.

Okay, Since my original post I now have 8 games that suck more than the game I listed (according to gamespot). In order of suckitude:

1. Dragon Ball Z: Ultimate Battle 22, PS 1.2 (Japanese version)
2. KISS Pinball, PS 1.3
3. Drake of the 99 Dragons, XB 1.6
4. NRA Gun Club, PS2 1.6
5. Spawn the Eternal, PS 1.8
6. Spirit of Speed 1937, DC 1.9 (Harsh score, not at all fair)
7. World War II Combat: Road to Berlin, XB 2.0 (I have no recollection of buying this one)
8. Black Stone: Magic & Steel, XB 2.1

Mistmare - 1.7

It's the worst RPG I've ever played. I've played some bad ones too. The game makes Dungeon Lords look positively awesome by comparison.

I might have Big Rigs at work, too - I haven't played it - it says 18 wheel something so it might be 18 wheeler. I didn't even think that it might be that until now. It's a pretty bad game from when I've seen students play it. I bought a bunch of jewel case titles for work so I probably have some real dregs, not listed.

....that's what happens when they give you a $50 software budget and your machines are 10 years old.

After that I think it's Countdown Vampires with 3.3 - IMO, it's bad, but not that bad. To be frank I don't even think it's that much worse than the original (non-DC, non analog controller) RE which is, IMO, the most overrated horror game of all time.

What's the worst reviewed GS game? Big Rigs?

guinness4life

yup, and gamespot's 1.0 is actually one of the highest scores it recieved (becuase gs's doesn't go any lower). it's THAT bad.

Man, I wish I still had Superman for N64 now :(

Alundra 2 - 4.0

It wasn't good, especially after the first Alundra which was superb. Still 4's a little too low imo, I remember it been quite playable back then and I think it was kinda aimed towards kids of my age when it came out.

Also looking through just now and I saw on gamecube Resident Evil 3 got a 4.7 and Resi 2 got a 5.0... Even though they're straight ports the scores seem kinda dumb to me.

I have about 40 games that don't even have a GS rating. 6 out of the 7 I picked up in the last few months due to incredibly cheap prices:

Bomberman: Act Zero (X360) 2.9

Looney Tunes: Acme Arsenal (X360) 3.0

Boogie (PS2) 4.0

Corvette (Xbox) 4.3

The Golden Compass (X360) 4.5

Superman Returns: The Videogame (X360) 4.5

Ratatouille (X360) 4.5
